Why? Because putenv("a") fails to remove "a=..." from the environment, but the gnulib rpl_putenv works by assigning to environ. Apparently, Haiku is doing some funky caching issues, and correctly removes all vestiges of environment duplicates when Haiku is in charge, but not after assigning to environ forces Haiku to rebuild its cache. The m4 change is sufficient to detect Haiku's oddities, and the existing replacement then passes just fine. * m4/setenv.m4 (gl_FUNC_UNSETENV): Also detect Haiku issue. * doc/posix-functions/unsetenv.texi (unsetenv): Document it.
